Quotes
Gary Fowler, director of product management at iPass
- “Now users connect with iPhones and Android devices, they connect with BlackBerry devices, they connect with Symbian devices and now they even connect with iPads, so it is important when evaluating connectivity solutions that you have a solution that meets all of those environments and not just a PC.”
Dan Little, director of customer support at Hay Group
- “The internet is a very bad place if you are not paying attention and we need to make sure that our intellectual property is always secure. iPass provides us with a great tool because before you can connect to the Hay Group domain the iPass tool remediates anti-virus, anti malware and spyware solutions to make sure you are as up to date outside the office as you are in the office. That way we can go to sleep at night knowing we have done everything we can to protect our data.”
- “Our visibility into the iPass service has really helped us manage better who uses what, where people go and the amount of connectivity that we have. Through the iPass reporting tools I can track our usage and I can see if we are going to certain areas over and over again. I can also see who is and who isn’t using the tool.”
